She claimed at the time: “We used to have a fantastic sex life. I still love my husband, we cuddle up and it’s lovely.

“We’ve been together for 11 years, but I’m not interested [in sex]. I don’t want to.”

Saira Khan on 'Loose Women'

However, during Wednesday’s (13 September) instalment of the ITV show, Saira offered fans an update more than a year later, revealing there’d been quite a change.

Saira explained: “As you know I talked about not wanting to have sex anymore… I went to therapy and I took Steve with me.

“And I can honestly tell you, this is the honest truth, if there’s any woman out there who is feeling the same [as I did], please go and talk to somebody, because it could be hormones, but it could be things that come to a head because you haven’t dealt with those things.

“And since that day, since we’ve had that course of therapy, our sex life is fantastic. It’s fine!”
